Sitting long hours has taken a toll on a lot of us due to the new WFH setups.<p>I'm planning to get a standing desk and place a walking treadmill under it because standing for long is bad for the knees too.<p>Looking for experience from those who've used a walking treadmill + standing desk setup
IME: Much work was slower while walking:<p>Reading: My head was moving relative to the text; reading was much slower.<p>Typing: My arms and thus hands were moving relative to the keyboard. Perhaps typing on a phone screen would be better, as it can move with you.<p>Using a mouse: Tough to do while walking.<p>Talking: Obviously people walk while talking on the phone, but notice that they stop when they have to concentrate. As another example, talking on the phone while driving sometimes results in a failure to do one or both.<p>Thinking: Walking can be good for getting the creative juices flowing, but I find it hard to walk and really concentrate hard on intellectual things.<p>But having said all that, I would give it a try: What you do, how you work and walk might be different. Maybe you'll find better solutions. Worst case is, it doesn't work out.
